Why the rate depends on the address

A Michigan property is taxed by every unit it sits in: the county, the township or city, the village if it's in one, the school district and intermediate school district, and sometimes a library, college or authority. All of Lakefield Township shares the same combination.

Your tax bill, or your county's appraisal or assessment office, lists the units for your property.
